Rosario Islands Day Trip
Description
Experience the rich history of Cartagena de Indias while enjoying the serene beauty of its beaches through this day tour to the Rosario Islands, combining two remarkable excursions in one.
Day Tour to the Rosario Islands
Your journey begins with a pickup from your Barranquilla hotel at 5:30 am, followed by a minibus ride to Cartagena de Indias, a city renowned for its historical significance in the Americas.
Upon arrival, we will embark on a panoramic exploration of the city's notable landmarks. The itinerary includes a pass through the charming Manga neighbourhood, celebrated for its Moorish-inspired architecture, as we make our way to the iconic Pastelillo Fort, a defining symbol of Cartagena.
Continuing our journey, we will traverse the industrial region of Mamonal en route to Playa Blanca, a stunning spot nestled on the Baru Peninsula. Recognized as one of the most sought-after beaches within the Rosario Islands National Park, its allure will soon be evident.
Upon reaching Playa Blanca, enjoy leisure time to stroll along the sandy shores, bask in the sun, or take a refreshing dip in the Caribbean waters. Adventure enthusiasts can opt for activities like snorkelling, scuba diving, and other water sports at their own pace.
The day culminates with a delightful lunch at Playa Blanca, featuring traditional dishes such as coconut rice, fried fish, patacones, and fresh salad to replenish your energy.
We will then commence our return trip to Barranquilla, arriving back at your hotel by 6 pm.
